The convicted terrorist was released a week ago after serving just half his three-year sentence for terror offences. 9News
"The incident has been declared as terrorist-related."Police said they received reports of the stabbings around 2pm yesterday.
Personal items litter ground at the scene of an incident after a man has been shot by armed police at a street in Streatham, London.Witness Karker Tahir told Sky News that undercover police officers chased a man down the neighbourhood's main commercial street."But he didn't stop, and then I saw that they shot him three times. It was horrible seeing it. The man was on the floor and it looked like he had something which police said may be a device.
The attack took place a little over two months after two people were stabbed to death near London Bridge by a man who had recently been released from the prison where he was serving a 16-year sentence for plotting a terror attack. Mr Roberts said if the facts show the stabbings were carried out by a "self-starter", it meant that any city in the country was vulnerable at any time to a similar sort of low-tech attack.Authorities on November 4 reduced the national threat level to "substantial,'' meaning an attack is considered likely. That is the third highest level in a five-step alert system used by British authorities and marks the first time the threat level has been so low since August 2014.
